  1. 1. Flight Dynamics Software Industrialisation for Inclined Orbits

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

    Author : Pierrick Houede; [2023]
    Keywords : flight; dynamics; software; FDS; geostationary; orbit; station; keeping; uncontrolled; inclination.;

    Abstract : The geostationary orbit has many applications for Earth observation and telecommunications. Like all satellites, spacecraft in this type of orbit are affected by perturbations. These perturbations can modify the satellites trajectories and, without control, deviate them from their target position. READ MORE

  3. 2. Thermal environment and design considerations of the Foresail-2 satellite mission

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

    Author : Deepa Anantha Raman; [2023]
    Keywords : satellite; thermal control; radiation; heat transfer; boom;

    Abstract : The thermal design of small satellite missions is critical for ensuring the performance and longevity of onboard instruments. This thesis focuses on the thermal design of Foresail-2, a 6U CubeSat mission to Geostationary Transfer Orbit (GTO), specifically addressing the thermal challenges associated with the magnetometer located at the end of a long boom featured on the satellite.

  4. 3. Development of validation tool for antenna positioners on vehicles in motion

    University essay from KTH/Väg- och spårfordon samt konceptuell fordonsdesign

    Author : Hugo Cederqvist; [2023]
    Keywords : Vehicle Dynamics; Antennas; Mechanics; Fordonsdynamik; Antenner; Mekanik;

    Abstract : Artificial satellites play a vital role throughout the world today. They providea broad range of services ranging from navigation to communication and reconnaissance. As antenna technology is evolving and ground based antennas are getting smaller and smaller, the demand for on-the-move solutions is growing. READ MORE

  5. 4. Radiation Shielding Simulations for Small Satellites on Geostationary Transfer Orbit

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

    Author : Anton Fetzer; [2022]
    Keywords : GTO; Foresail-2; CubeSat; Radiation Shielding; Geant4; Radiation Belts; GTO; Foresail-2; CubeSat; säteilysuojaus; Geant4; säteilyvyöhyke;

    Abstract : The emergence of small and affordable satellites has led to rapid growth in the number of launched satellites over the past two decades. To save costs, small satellites often use mass-produced electronic components not explicitly designed for the radiation environment of space, which reduces reliability and makes them unsuitable for higher orbits.

  6. 5. Conceptual design of an electronic dockingstation and positioner for portable antenna

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Inst.)

    Author : Otto Egeman; Karl Westling; [2022]
    Keywords : Antenna; Automatic positioner; Geostationary; Docking station; Antenn; Automatisk inpekning; Geostationär; Dockningsstation;

    Abstract : The presented work in this report is a master’s thesis at the machine design track at KTH Royal Institute of Technology. The work was commissioned by Ovzon through Svea Teknik AB. The T6 antenna in Ovzons antenna terminal portfolio is as of now fully manual in terms of positioning against satellites. READ MORE
